One of the makeup artists we love is Corrie Elle Artistry because of their extensive experience. They’ve worked internationally and have an impressive clientele, such as fashion magazines and celebrities.

Another reason is their glamorous portfolio. Besides fresh and glam looks for commercial clients, we love the luxury bridal makeup they specialize in.

During our surveys, we learned they did flawless makeup styles that looked super professional! The brides they worked with were very happy because the whole experience was stress-free.

We appreciate that they offer packages and a la carte services that cater to specific needs. They even provide tattoo coverage and on-location touch-ups.

Additionally, we appreciate that their makeup packages provide a complete service. Bridal packages include airbrushing and premium lashes for the bride.

But here’s the catch: their office is only open four days a week and they’re expensive, with bridal packages starting at $1400. Nonetheless, the artistry and inclusions make it all worth it!

Pros

  • Worked with international clients
  • Offers packages and a la carte services
  • Package inclusions are extensive
  • Specialises in luxury bridal makeup

Cons

  • Expensive prices
  • Office is open 4 days a week

Provides a stress-free experience

“I am just SO happy I found Corrie and her team! Bianca and Amy were our stylists for our muskoka wedding this weekend. They both did an absolute fabulous job helping prepare me, my families, and bridal party for the day’s events! Communication was super easy leading up to the big day, and the execution was 10/10. They were both so easy going and made all my bridesmaids hair goals come through. And thank you Bianca, especially, for making me feel like a princess on my big day :)”

Makeup lasts for hours

“First of all, I highly recommend Corrie Elle Artistry and would book their service again. Corrie is super responsive, everything was well organized and it was very clear what is needed at all times. On the day I had senior artist Mel taking care of my sister and I’s hair and make-up and let me say it was the perfect morning. Mel is very attentive to detail, professional, and very helpful with all our questions. I was very impressed that our make-up and hair lasted over 18 hours and it did not feel heavy at all. It was the best experience for us and we would highly recommend and hope to book Corrie and her team again.”

When it comes to elegant and feminine makeup looks in Toronto, one of our top picks is Luxe Look. It’s a plus that they offer tailored services for a stress-free experience.

It was awesome to hear clients sing praise for their makeup artist’s incredible attention to detail. In our books, that shows professionalism!

When we inquired about their services, we were in awe at their many offerings. They even offer cultural bride makeup, which shows their versatility because they can work with any skin tone and features.

Plus, we like that they only stick to high-end brands that have been proven reliable, like Nars, Dior, Hourglass, and Laura Mercier.

And despite being a mobile makeup artist, they still offer in-studio makeup trials in Toronto. Very convenient, eh?

A hiccup is that their calendar fills up quickly and their travel fees for the GTA are slightly pricier than others. Still, the convenience they provide is worth every loonie!

Pros

  • Known for elegant and feminine looks
  • Offers cultural bride makeup
  • Uses high-end brands

Cons

  • Gets booked quickly
  • GTA travel fees are pricey

Responsive and easy to work with

“Vikka and her team were amazing! From the make up and hair trial to the actual wedding day! My bridesmaids and I were amazed with our hair and make up and how long it lasted throughout the day! Vikka is so pleasant to work with, and super kind and professional! She was always so responsive throughout the whole wedding process and knew exactly the kind of look me and my girls were going for! Thank you again Vikka for everything you’ve done to make us all look stunning on my special day!”

Here’s the thing about Jen Evoy Makeup Studio: they’re a one-stop shop for all your beauty needs. Seriously, we were surprised at how many services they offer using high-quality makeup products.

Basically, they offer in-studio and mobile makeup services, lash lifts, brow services, hairstyling, blowouts, and spray tanning. It’s also cool that they’re experts at cultural bride makeup and even offer dupatta settings and tikka applications as add-on services.

We want to highlight their studio, which felt so luxurious and clean. It’s a good place to get a makeup trial for any event, even though the bridal makeup trial is only available from Tuesday to Thursday.

It was unfortunate to hear complaints regarding the service. Some clients we spoke with mentioned their makeup caking and their makeup artists not listening to their requests.

On a good note, the prices are competitive! Even the master artist rates are within the reasonable range in Toronto.

Pros

  • A one-stop shop for all beauty needs
  • Provides cultural bride makeup
  • Prices are competitive
  • Offers plenty of add-on services

Cons

  • Limited availability for bridal makeup trial
  • Some complaints about customer service
  • Some instances of cakey makeup

Accommodates client requests

“I had the pleasure of having Jen Evoy Makeup Studio as my hair and makeup artists for my wedding day this past week. Linda did makeup for my bridesmaids and I and did an INCREDIBLE job. Jane did our hair and it turned out PERFECT for all of us!!! They were also so so kind and accommodating. We had to move our wedding up by two months and change plans very last minute due to unforeseen and difficult circumstances, and JEMS were so kind and so happy to make it work for us. I am so grateful to have had such an incredible vendor for my wedding, especially during a difficult time. They made my wedding day amazing. Thank you so much Linda and Jane ❤️❤️”

Patient and listens to clients

“Thank you to the Jen Evoy Crew for making my special day so perfect! Allie, Jane, Kaylee and Karina did a phenomenal job with their exceptional expertise with make-up and hair for Myself, my Bridesmaids and my Mom. Beauty at its finest! Everything turned out amazing! The Jen Evoy Crew were extremely patient and really listened to our wants and needs, which was truly appreciated. Thank you all so very much! I highly recommend their services for your special day or any special event. From lifewithoinks (Jennifer Shuman, now Francia) – August 26, 2023.”

Rebel + Beauty is the kind of place clients go to for some pizzazz before an event, whether you need full glam or eye makeup only. We actually like the enticing eyes service because it’s ideal for individuals who are makeup beginners.

During our visit, we saw their own brand of makeup products, which clients have mentioned are high-quality and last a long time! In our books, that’s worth a lot of points!

Besides in-studio services, we like that their makeup artists are also available for on-site bridal makeup. Flower girls aged 12 and under are even complimentary!

Another thing that’s good for the budget is their price list. Their mobile bridal makeup is only $170, and it’s cheaper if you get it in the studio.

However, they don’t offer mobile bridal makeup trials. It’s not that big of an issue since their studio’s easily accessible, even though parking may be hard to come by sometimes.

Pros

  • Eye makeup-only service is available
  • Complimentary makeup for flower girls
  • Price list is affordable
  • Has own brand of makeup

Cons

  • No mobile bridal makeup trial
  • Parking may be tough to find

Very professional with a warm approach

“Love R&B. Olga is amazing – so friendly and incredibly skilled! Their line of beauty products is also fantastic. Rebel & Beauty provides the perfect combination of expertise with a caring touch. They really get to know each client as an individual and warmly welcome you back each time.”

Barbara Callaghan, Google Review

Highly recommended for special occassions

“OG and the Rebel + Beauty Babes are beyond amazing.  I met OG 7 years ago and no one has touched my eyebrows since.  I consistently get compliments about the shape of my brows and the R+B crew has been part of my most special moments. Mandee has been my go to makeup artist for any wedding I have attended as a guest, and I was so honoured to have her do my own  bridal makeup.  S/O to Tay Tay who is always bringing the energy. Highly highly recommend all the ladies.”
